Should I do it?

[edwinbill64]

Everyone's been very helpful on this forum so I thought Id ask one more time before I pulled the trigger. I am interested in this stone, if anyone sees anything that I missed please let me know but I think its fairly priced around $19k compared to others I have been looking at. Let me know how it looks in your trained eyes. Thanks again for everyone's help!

Very nice. Did Jon confirm that it was eye clean?

Hey Christina.

Eye clean just means that none of the imperfections can be seen with the naked eye?

Most vendors say eye clean if no inclusions can be seen from 6 inches away.

I went to take a look at it and couldn't see any of the inclusions. The GIA cert has a "cloud" in the middle but I didnt even see that under the magnification really. Do all the 'scopes' look ok to everyone?

It looks like a beautiful diamond. I would also see if they can confirm if it is eye clean.

Everything looks fantastic so no worries about the light performance. Everyone has a different definition of eye clean. For some it may be that they don't want to see any inclusions from half an arms length, for others they don't want to see anything for six inches from the top or the sides. I have an SI2 as well, and I can't locate the inclusions unless I look super close and then only after I louped it first and referred to the report, others that are more sensitive may notice them more easily. I would just ask Jon his thoughts, if he feels it's eye clean than that would be good enough for me to order it and take a look for myself!

Thanks! I will give them a call on Tues to verify. Very nice people and I felt comfortable in their shop.
